Description
As the California Gold Rush begins, Jonathan Trumbo (Ray Milland, The Lost weekend) goes AWOL from the Army and decides to lead a wagon train to the West Coast. With saloon girl Lily Bishop (Barbara Stanwyck, Double Indemnity) and Irishman Michael Fabian (Barry Fitzgerald, The Quiet Man) at his side, Jonathan arrives in California. There, he finds that rich landowner Capt. Pharaoh Coffin (George Coulouris, Citizen Kane) is trying to block California from statehood. But Trumbo's never taken kindly to men in power, and he's soon dangerously at odds with Coffin.
